Happy New Year

New Year's Eve in the Netherlands is quite a fun evening. Plenty of fireworks and lots of Olibollen; an event that we were very much anticipating.

Last year, we sat and enjoyed watching the fireworks. This year, we had Leah and Jan over and the boys set off some of their own fireworks. Before fireworks started, we enjoyed dinner, games and some Oliebollen. Atticus enjoyed playing with his friend, Evia, and they even rounded out the evening with jumping on our bed. 

There were some people who started setting off fireworks early in the day, but we waited until midnight before we sent the boys out into the cold. Thankfully Jason was wearing gloves so when he held onto one of the fireworks a little too long it was only his glove that got burned.

It was fun to see all the different firework displays and Atticus woke up to join in the fun. We all called it a night around 2:30am. Sleep felt good.

All in all; a wonderful evening with great company and great food. 

Love,

Out for a walk the morning after and we couldn't believe the mess that everyone left behind! (sidenote:::the boys made sure to clean up their firework remains.)
